[Krill]

NM, we will name a unit after you, just wait until we have a few ICBMs

[SirOsis]

Since we are going with greek names...

Male greek names

Female greek names

Ancient greek names

That should be enough to pick out some good ones.

[Krill]

What unit are my going to call Markos? Could I suggest we leave that name for any leaders we may/may not get

SirOsis, I appreciatte the links, but I hope you appreciatte time issues on following these down...

So I may not be dragging names of them myself for the polls - yet others are more than welcome to follow the links and get the names that they enjoy or desire most

[SirOsis]

Sure. I just posted them for people to get ideas. I'll pick out a few I like and post them.

After seing Troy the movie, I want Akilles, Paris, Hector or are we saving those names for heroes(MGL's) ?

And as humble I am, Jagjef as a Swordsman

[Tassadar500]

I'll go with any unit

[GodKing]

bump - lets add some more names folks, then we can repost them and get them organized.

If possible, can people also post a short (1-2 sentance) bio with each name so people know a bit about them.

[Tassadar500]

We need names for a Warrior and a Hoplite.

[Togas]

We can go with famous Greek Warriors like Achilles and Odysseus.

We now need a name for a worker.

[MrWhereItsAt]

Prometheus? He suffers now for his efforts for humanity. Or perhaps that's better suited to the first slave from PAL?

[GodKing]

I was thinking Atlas... the world on his shoulders?
